APG's reported carbon emissions

In 2019, APG reported total carbon emissions of approximately 102,790,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 37,817,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 1,994,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3. This data indicates a significant carbon footprint, particularly from Scope 2 emissions, which are primarily associated with energy consumption. Comparatively, in 2018, APG's emissions were approximately 9,620,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 39,261,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 3,757,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3. The 2017 figures were approximately 7,356,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 27,807,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 3,531,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3. This data shows a slight increase in Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions from 2017 to 2019, while Scope 3 emissions decreased over the same period. APG has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. However, the company is actively monitoring its emissions and has reported GHG emissions intensity figures, which indicate a focus on sustainability. The GHG emissions intensity was approximately 1,371 kg CO2e per tonne of production in 2017, decreasing to about 1,122 kg CO2e per tonne in 2018, and further to approximately 843 kg CO2e per tonne in 2020. Overall, while APG has made strides in improving emissions intensity, the lack of specific reduction targets suggests an opportunity for further commitment to climate action.
